"I completely agree with Mr. Sander's words and I'd like to add that there are already reports of incidents resulting in actions against IMG assets that might be related with some form of 'dirty war' against us." Jack says in a serious tone.
"The reports are vague as the perpetrators never state who paid them, so it is mainly guesswork. But..." he leans formward, putting the elbows on the table, lookign at the Gaian delegation...
"... it would be rather normal for the BMM to take measures against us covertly. It takes no genius to guess that the increasingly successful and painful hits against BMM assets might have something to do with a change in power constallation in the mining business in Dublin."
"So, we should expect our rivals to resort to the same means of combat as we do..." he shrugs, then displays a wolfish smile: "We just have to make sure we hit the fat target harder and - being a small target - remain harder to hit."
"Consequently I am all in favour of a covert cooperation against BMM."
"I'd also say that IMG in Dublin can actively try to exploit difficulties in the Outcast-BAF relationship to work towards a break in their relations. I have some ideas regarding that, which will need further thought."
"We are also trying hard to seperate BAF and BMM interests by discrediting BMM extremists. This has yet to be successful, even though some BAF Commanders who sided openly with criminal elements associated with BMM haven been sent out of Dublin permanently. So... we are making progress there as well." he concludes and leans back again.
